Told you so Dan.

Matt is one of the Top 10 lifters in Oz

Spending money getting taught by a proper strength coach is the best thing you can do if you are serious about improving your lifts.

Look forward to reading about your progress

To say I was surprised is an understatement.

Not that I doubted what you were saying Markos, moreso that I doubted I could do it given what I thought of my back and ankle.

Based on how I feel today, my back and ankle must be stronger than I gave them credit for.

Initially my goal for this year, as in year starting October when I busted my leg, was to squat and DL BW for reps and get those areas more balanced with the bench. I'm confident I can do that and will have to pick some new goals for the remainder of the year.

Really good to hear the session was worth it Dan! Good shit :) Similarly, even without the coaching, I was blown away when I managed to pull 175kg at ~72kg body weight. Nothing compared to the PTC lifters, but I just didn't think it was really possible to do with remotely decent form at my size.

Go as high as you want man; it's about you, not impressing others or meeting their expectations. People will always be more concerned with their own lifts than others anyway. Improvement can be addictive though.

Dan, over 250 clients at my gym have pulled over 200kg, only around 15% compete, the other 85% are just like you and everyone else on this forum, only stronger lol

In time, you will pull 200kg

Good goal

At all? wtf?

I've had... Banana, apple, rolled oats, a few cups of tea, some saladas, home made chicken and veg soup for lunch, plus the aforementioned suffer in your jocks everyone else donuts.

Edited by ActionDan

I've had 1x regular skim flat white (320ml total, 2 shots espresso) and 1x jumbo skim flat white (470ml total, 3 shots espresso), and a multivitamin. Apparently that comes to somewhere around 245 cal.

C'mon man, lack of food is affecting you. I said "At all? wtf? " There's two question marks in there.. Get on board :D

Well you're forked in the head my friend. Going a day without eating is just plain wrong.

Are you some kind of masochist?

Please tell me you're only kidding and you're not in just as much denial about human nutrition and dieting methods as Birds is lol

I'd argue being overweight by eating complete shit is a better definition of being masochistic. Hell, even just eating "bad" food like your donuts is worse.

Going a day without eating is only good for you, short of being lethargic and grumpy.

lol nah you're missing the point entirely.

I enjoy eating food, not doing it is painful, to do that intentionally is the definition of masochism.

I didn't say anything about it being good or bad nutritionally, I give no f**ks for that.

I'm a simple man Troy, food good, no food bad.

Troy not eat food? Bad Troy.

    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
    • @GTSBoy yeah sorry i know thery are known for colors bud those DBA are too in colors 🙂 Green will be good enough for me
